The Visualization of medical images is fundamental for the identification of structures and organs of interest. The hippocampus is a cerebral structure with functional impact at the memory level. Magnetic Ressonance Imaging has been enabling several types of hippocampus visualizations This paper describes a simple visualization system, which was designed to view the 3D representation and morphology of...
Introduction: The extensor tendons of fingers are subject of many variations, some of them quite frequent.Material and Methods: The dissection of the posterior region of forearm and hand was carried out, and the anatomical variations were documented.Results: In Case 1 the extensor digitorum divided into 5 tendons: one for the index finger, one for the middle finger, two for the ring finger and one for the littl...
Introduction: There are several reports of sciatic nerve anatomical variations. Some are associated with clinical entities, such as piriformis syndrome. We aim to report a rare anatomical variation of this nerve.Cases report: Two leucodermic, 74 and 78-year-old male subjects, deceased of natural causes, without lower limb relevant medical history. In both subjects, the right sciatic nerve was absent, with an in...

To elucidate the mechanisms of antischistosoma resistance, drug-resistant Schistosoma mansoni laboratory isolates are essential. We developed a new method for inducing resistance to praziquantel (PZQ) using successive drug treatments of Biomphalaria glabrata snails infected with S. mansoni. Infected B. glabrata were treated three times with 100 mg/kg PZQ for five consecutive days with a one-week interval betwee...
O processo de secularização em Portugal diz respeito à autonomização do Estado relativamente à Igreja. A emergência de novas mundividências vem questionar o papel da Igreja na sociedade, em particular, a sua excessiva influência. Assim, o entendimento deste processo implica um breve enquadramento historiográfico comparativo da Primeira República e do Estado Novo, de modo a esclarecer a questão da secularização ...
Two series of novel thermally stable second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) and photochromic chromophores have been designed and synthesized. The two series of compounds were based on different combinations of donor groups (pyrrole or thienylpyrrole) which act simultaneously as Π-conjugated bridges, together with diazoaryl or diazothiazolyl as acceptor moieties. Their photochromic and electrochemical behavior wer...
Mitochondrial DNA of Biomphalaria tenagophila, a mollusc intermediate host of Schistosoma mansoni in Brazil, was sequenced and characterised. The genome size found for B. tenagophila was 13,722 bp and contained 13 messenger RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs (tRNA) and two ribosomal RNAs (rRNA). In addition to sequencing, the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genome organization of B. tenagophila was analysed based on its content ...
